While there are very few firms with strict GPA requirements, remember that firms may be assessing the following factors in addition to law school performance:
- Prior work experience
- Undergraduate (or other graduate) performance
- Diversity (defined broadly)
- Demonstrated interest in their firm (attendance at receptions, communication with attorneys there, etc.)
- Specific reasons for why you want to join a large law firm (ex: professional development opportunities), combined with a particular interest in their office (ex: geographic ties + a specific practice group)
Work with your CDO advisor to develop your narrative, and be sure to identify the features or attributes that each firm promotes on its recruiting website – those are aspects they value and feel are distinguishing (ex: Choate’s “one office” model)
